Set aside some time for ‘Talk Homework’ Task 1: Talk Talk Talk
Encourage as many family members as possible to be home on Talk Homework evening and consider discussing the question while having a meal together.
Don't just give your opinion, use the 'because' word to explain why you think that.
Give the possible opinions of two contrasting family members who are not present for the talk, and use the 'because' word to explain why they may be different.
Ask others around the table to give their opinions and to use the 'because' word.
Ask your child his/her opinion and ask them to use the 'because' word.
You could link the topic back to something you remember from when you were a child and say why things may be different now.
Task 2: Plan
You will need to write a plan for your iWrite time. This plan needs to include:
A brainstorm of ideas you will use
Keep in mind what text type you are going to use (e.g. story, recount, play, report...)
You will need this plan to be beside you during iWrite time, so the more ideas and vocabulary you have, the more successful your writing will be.
Make sure you bring your plan to school on Friday each week.
Room 10's iWrite time will be a Friday!
